That is interesting, because I totally get the modeling, etc...because you are profiting from your "celebrity status" as an athlete.

I guess it just seems like it would be different for someone to basically be an extra in a film (I doubt many of the college/pro players they are looking for will have speaking parts)

...though I guess it would be hard to police the difference between an extra part and a speaking role (that might have been gained because of their known status as a college athlete)...so you just have to eliminate everyone. Makes sense.

As for club players, they are not receiving any athletic financial support from the school, so I can't imagine why they couldn't be in a movie.
